Sam's right... this is not only a big mistake, it's tragic! Sam has a good
list of people we can write to in his follow-up message. Does anyone have
any other practical suggestions that we as geeks can follow to make a
difference? I grew up with that thing, have seen many shows there, and I
like the old building just like it is.
